Chapter 160

    “Lucky!”


    Sejun smiled as he saw the gigantic worm… no, the ck Earth Dragon. Who would’ve thought that a monster resembling an earthworm would appear on its own?


    Now, whether the field is 330,000 square meters or 3.3 million square meters, it doesn’t matter. If the ck Earth Dragon passes by and swallows and spits out the soil several times, it’s ready. There’s a reason why earthworm farming is popr on Earth.


    ‘But do earthworms only eat soil?’


    Because of its size, Sejun wondered if he needed to feed the ck Earth Dragon something additional.


    While Sejun was daydreaming, his fantasies as if he had already tamed the ck Earth Dragon,


    “That’s a huge worm, meow!”


    Theo rudely pointed at the ck Earth Dragon with his w and shouted.


    -How dare you! Just for awakening me, the Earth Dragon, you deserve death!! And to insult me by calling me an earthworm!!! I shall not let you die easily!!!


    This further fueled the anger of the ck Earth Dragon, who was already sending a murderous re at Sejun for awakening it.


    However,


    “Humph! So what, meow! I am more amazing, meow! Because I am a subordinate of the great ck Dragon…”


    Theo was introducing himself without any hesitation to the ck Earth Dragon. But,


    -What?! The great ck Dragon took someone like you as a subordinate?!!! I can’t believe it! If you are really a subordinate of the great ck Dragon, show me the proof!


    The ck Earth Dragon interrupted Theo and demanded proof of the ck Dragon.


    “Puhuhut. Here it is, meow! Cuengi, show yours too, meow!”


    Theo, as if he was waiting for it, confidently showed the sole of his hind paw.


    Krueng!


    [Here it is!]


    Cuengi also gave a thumbs up in response to Theo’s words.


    Swoosh.


    Sejun slowly rolled up his sleeve, flexing his left arm to show his dragon tattoo.


    And then,


    -This… How can this be…


    The ck Earth Dragon was greatly shocked after seeing the ck Dragon’s tattoo on Sejun’s arm. It wasn’t just because the tattoo wasrge and clearly visible.


    -He had time to give such a lowly being his mark!!!


    The anger was due to the neglect of not visiting him for centuries despite serving the ck Tower for over a thousand years, yet giving a weak being like Sejun a mark.


    Bang!


    Eventually, the ck Earth Dragon lost its rationality and lost its temper. Showing the proof had a counterproductive effect.


    And then,


    -Die!!!


    The ck Earth Dragon, having lost its rationality, swung its massive tail towards Sejun.


    However,


    “Kyoo-Kyoo-Kyoo- How dare you damage my tower!!!”


    Iona, who had been sleeping on Theo’s tail, opened her eyes as she felt the enormous force approaching her tower. She opened her eyes in annoyance; the tower had just been repaired from Cuengi’s damage.


    “Stones! At mymand, strike the enemy! me Stone Missile!”


    When Iona cast her spell towards the approaching tail of the ck Earth Dragon, thousands of stones on the ground levitated and, with rapid eleration, flew towards it.


    Kwa-gwa-gwang!


    With a loud explosion, a giant shockwave and fragments of stone rushed towards the tower.


    However,


    Woong.


    As if to prove it was no ordinary wizard tower, the barrier installed on the tower blocked the shockwave and the stones.


    Meanwhile,


    “Gravity, follow mymand and strengthen the force! Gravity Control.”


    Iona cast another spell, applying tenfold gravity on the ck Earth Dragon.


    Ku-gu-gung.


    -Ugh…


    With Iona’s spell, the ck Earth Dragon was buried into the ground.


    “The power of magic…”


    Just as Iona was about to deliver the final blow,


    “Iona, don’t kill it! Let’s go down, guys.”


    Sejun hurriedly stopped Iona, who was about to kill the worker needed for earthworm farming.


    He hurriedly took the animals and descended the wizard tower. He was nning to coax the ck Earth Dragon, who was angry because of the proof, into working on the farm by giving it the proof.


    As soon as they arrived at the ce where the ck Earth Dragon was buried,


    Kuoooo!


    The ck Earth Dragon, oveing ten times the gravity, raised its head from the ground.


    “Wait, listen to me. I have the proof…”


    When Sejun tried to persuade the ck Earth Dragon to work together on the farm by touching its body,


    [You have made contact with the ck Earth Dragon, the ally of the ck Tower Farmer.]


    [A quest has been generated.]


    [Job Quest: Tame the angry ck Earth Dragon, the one who swallows thend, that has been neglected for hundreds of years, and give it a name!]


    Sess is guaranteed as long as you tame it by any means necessary.


    Reward: ck Earth Dragon, the one who swallows thend, will help with farming.


    A quest was triggered.


    “Huh?! An ally?”


    -What?! A weakling like you is a tower farmer?!


    While making contact with Sejun, the ck Earth Dragon seemed extremely surprised, perhaps realizing Sejun’s identity. It was because Sejun was too weak. There had never been such a weak tower farmer in the history of the ck Tower. It was a bad sign. A sign of the tower’s downfall.


    “Yeah. So, let’s work together.”


    Already used to being looked down upon for being weak, Sejun continued to speak to the ck Earth Dragon.


    Then,


    -I cannot acknowledge a lowly tower farmer like you!


    Kugugung.


    The ck Earth Dragon attacked Sejun using its tail, which was hidden underground.


    Krueng!


    [Daddy’s in danger!]


    Cuengi erged to block the attack.


    Kwaaang!


    Krooooo!


    The dragon tattoo on Cuengi’s thumb roared, protecting Cuengi before disappearing.


    Krueng?


    Although the item description said it would activate when life was in danger, it actually activated automatically when it was attacked with a certain level of force. The Dragon Skin was activated.


    Krueng! Krueng!


    [Cuengi’s tattoo is gone! Cuengi is angry!]


    Kwaaang! Kwagwagwang!


    As the tattoo disappeared, the angry Cuengi started to beat the ck Earth Dragon with its front paws.


    Krueng!


    [The worm is bad!]


    -Euk!


    The ck Earth Dragon groaned in pain from Cuengi’s attack. Due to the 10 times gravity, it was hard to move its body properly, making it impossible to counterattack.


    “Cuengi, stop hitting it. I’ll engrave the tattoo again.”


    When Cuengi sufficiently battered the ck Earth Dragon’s body, Sejun stopped Cuengi.


    And then,N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    “Here.”


    Using Kaiser’s scales, Sejun engraved the dragon tattoo on Cuengi’s thumb again.


    Krueng! Krueng!


    [Thank you, Daddy! Cuengi’s tattoo has returned!]


    While Cuengi was happily celebrating the return of its tattoo,


    -How could you…?


    “How about it? Want one? Follow me and I’ll engrave one for you.”


    Seeing Sejun engraved the tattoo on Cuengi again, the ck Earth Dragon, who was in shock, was tempted by Sejun showing dozens of Kaiser’s scales.


    However,


    -You’re weak…


    It felt disdain at the sight of him cowering behind strong monsters.


    “Don’t want to? Then there’s no choice. Cuengi, hit the worm some more.”


    Krueng! Krueng!


    [Got it! The bad worm needs more beating!]


    -No… Wait…


    Krueng!


    Kwaaang!


    Before the ck Earth Dragon could finish speaking, Cuengi’s uppercut struck.


    After being hit for a while,


    “Will you follow or not?”


    Sejun asked again.


    -……


    The ck Earth Dragon didn’t answer. It didn’t want to be hit, but it wasn’t ready to submit yet.


    “I even thought of a cool name for you… Aren’t you curious?”


    Sejun gave the ck Earth Dragon a reason it couldn’t refuse.


    -My name?!


    “Yes. How about Toryong (土龍)? In Earth, Ryong is the same as Yong (Dragon).”


    Ryong means dragon, and the fact that ‘Toryong’ means earthworm was a secret.


    However,


    -…!


    The ck Earth Dragon, who didn’t know that, was deeply moved by Sejun’s words. He even included a word equivalent to dragon in the name!


    [The quest has beenpleted.]


    [As a reward forpleting the quest, the ck Earth Dragon, Toryong, will help with the farm work.]


    Although there was no answer, the questpletion message indicated that the ck Earth Dragon, now Toryong, decided to join Sejun’s farm.


    -Very well! Master, I will follow you.


    “Wee, Toryong.”


    Sejun said as he engraved the tattoo on Toryong’s head. A dragon tattoo the size of a bean was carved on its head.


    “Wee, youngest brother, Toryong, meow! I am the eldest brother, Theo Park, meow!”


    Krueng! Krueng!


    [Wee to the new youngest brother! I am the fourth brother, Park Cuengi!]


    -…Youngest?


    “You’re thest to join, so you’re the youngest, meow!”


    Krueng! Krueng!


    [That’s right! Toryong is the sixth!]


    “The second is mie, the third is ck Rabbit…”


    Theo recited the family tree.


    Having the mark and a name was nice, but getting five older brothers and a sister out of nowhere? The Earth Dragon wasn’t sure whether this was a good or bad thing.


    However,


    -Still, I’m over 2000 years old…


    Being called the youngest felt a bit unjust.


    ***


    20th floor of the tower.


    “Is everyone here?”


    “Yes!”


    Han Tae-jun asked, looking at the disciples who had joined halfway.


    Then,


    “Huh?”


    Jang Rin, who was missing an arm, caught Han Tae-jun’s eye.


    “Jang Rin! Why are you here? Go back to the hospital!”


    Han Tae-jun shouted. It was too dangerous for him toe here with a body that hadn’t recovered yet.


    “Master. I must avenge my brothers! And without me, who remembers the enemy’s appearance and characteristics, tracking will be difficult. Please let me go with you!”


    “…….”


    Han Tae-jun looked silently into Jang Rin’s eyes. He could force him to go back, but the determination in his eyes was unwavering.


    “Fine. But don’t stray too far from me.”


    “Yes! Thank you, Master.”


    “First, tell me what you remember.”


    “The attackers who ambushed us were wearing ck masks and ck clothes.”


    “Is there nothing else?”


    It was difficult to pursue them based on that alone because it was amon outfit for robbers.


    “Ah! There was one peculiar thing.”


    “Peculiar?”


    “Yes. I briefly saw a tattoo of a snake with three heads in a circle on one of their necks.”


    “A snake with three heads?!”


    “Yes. Did I see it wrong?”


    “Hmm……”


    Han Tae-jun let out a sigh instead of answering.


    ‘A snake tattoo with three heads…’


    He did not know the exact name of the organization. It was just informally called the ‘Three Head Society’ because they had a circr tattoo of a snake with three heads.


    The origin of the organization was known to be made up of hunters from the mafia, yakuza, and triads.


    If Jang Rin saw correctly, this was very dangerous. It was not something that could be resolved with just his and his disciples’ strength.


    But if they continued to target the sturdy de green onions, it was also unavoidable.


    “For now, let’s move to the 40th floor of the tower.”


    “Yes!”


    Han Tae-jun took his disciples and moved to the 40th floor. He was nning to ask for help from the cat merchants.


    ***


    They returned to the farm riding Toryong. When they arrived at the farm, it was already bedtime.


    -Then I will start working right away!


    As soon as they arrived at the farm, Toryong shrank to the size of a finger and jumped right into the field.


    “Alright, take care.”


    Krueng!


    [Cuengi is going to sleep!]


    “Yes. Good night, Cuengi.”


    Sejun said goodbye to Cuengi and headed home. It had been a tiring day.


    Ker-er.


    Gororong.


    Kyororong.


    Sejun, Theo, and Iona fell asleep as soon as theyy down.


    Then,


    Thud. Thud.


    Without any noise, the door opened, and a white figure entered the room without hesitation. However, no one noticed the intruder as there was no sound.


    The being that entered Sejun’s bedroom began to rummage through Sejun’s body, searching for something.


    And then,


    -Found it.


    When it took out a leather pouch with seeds from Sejun’s pocket and tried to swallow a seed,


    Snap.


    Theo’s front paw blocked the white being’s mouth.


    “What, meow?! Kellion, are you trying to steal, meow?”


    -Ah… No…


    Theo asked, looking at Kellion.


    -How…


    Kellion looked back at Theo as if unable to understand why Theo could see him.


    Kellion had been waiting for the right moment when Kaiser left to steal the seed of ‘Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power’ that Sejun had.


    And when Kaiser left, he cast not only soundproof magic inside the bedroom but also perception distortion and all other magic to avoid detection. Yet he was still caught by Theo.


    “Chairman Park! There is a thief, meow!”


    Theo loudly alerted about the thief’s intrusion. It seemed the day was not over yet.
